The Marianne on Inwood Brings Luxury Senior Living to Dallas As Older Population Soars
The Marianne on Inwood will introduce a luxury senior living community to Dallas, responding to measurable demographic shifts as residents age 65 and older become the city’s fastest-growing cohort. The three-acre development will deliver 162 total residences: 96 independent living, 42 assisted living and 24 memory care apartments. Floor plans will include studio, one- and two-bedroom options and larger, well-appointed layouts intended to mirror the scale and comfort of nearby homes.
Common areas are designed with a hospitality-inspired aesthetic and an elevated, refined finish palette. Designed by Arcadis, the community will feature a waterfall entry, curated artwork and amenity spaces that support a broad range of programming. On-site offerings will include dining venues, a movie theater, art studio, salon, indoor and outdoor pools, a state-of-the-art fitness center, golf simulator, dog park and expansive courtyards.
According to the city of Dallas, the number of residents age 65 and older has grown five times faster than the rest of the population, accounting for about one-third of the city’s total growth over the past decade. “As the first baby boomers turn 80 in 2026, demand for high-quality senior living in Dallas is rising,” said Patrick McGonigle, CEO of Dallas-based Harbert South Bay Partners, LLC, developer of the community.
The Marianne is Harbert South Bay Partners’ first Dallas development since the late 1990s and sits roughly three miles from the company’s corporate headquarters. The project pairs Harbert South Bay Partners’ local market experience with Momentum Senior Living’s operating expertise to deliver a luxury senior living product in a walkable Inwood neighborhood near the Park Cities, Preston Hollow and the Dallas Medical District. “The Marianne brings a vibrant, amenity-rich senior living experience with opportunities for engagement in the city and beyond,” said Josh Johnson, CEO of Momentum Senior Living. “Residents can age in place, staying in a community that feels familiar, close to everything they’ve come to love.”
For operators and developers, The Marianne underscores the need to align product, location and programming with shifting age demographics. As senior demand accelerates in major markets, projects that combine design, wellness and place-based connectivity will shape how the multifamily industry responds to aging populations.
